I had enough of that ineptitude of justice the first time around. So I'll pass.

Ditto. I will usually give an FX show a whirl, but being in elementary school when this circus was going on, I have no desire to relive what I was too young to fully understand at the time. On the day the verdict was read, at school they gathered us all up, put us in the school auditorium and there were two TVs, one placed in each aisle as we watched the verdict come in live on Court TV. I was sick to my stomach. Living in the Buffalo area this is all that was talked about for months. My Aunt is a retired RN that worked at the hospital where injured Bills players are usually taken, at least back in his playing days. She was his nurse on more than a few occasions, the nicest thing she ever said about him was he was an arrogant pig and she and the people she worked with were not the least bit surprised that he turned into a cold blooded killer.

Being that this show is the brain child of Ryan Murphy, I wouldn't be surprised if they painted OJ to be golden church going school boy who was wrongly persecuted.
